Answer:
In Cl, the 2 is a subscript because it indicates there are 2 of the same elements. The Lewis structure would display it as Cl-Cl.
On the other hand, a superscript would indicate a specific charge.
All subscripts show the amount of the specific element there is.
An example would be O or N
, they both show that there are 2 of the same elements.
If the subscript is outside a parenthesis such as it indicates there are 2
molecules.
Answer: It will take 29 years for a 10.0-gram sample of strontium-90 to decay to 5.00 grams
Explanation:
Radioactive decay process is a type of process in which a less stable nuclei decomposes to a stable nuclei by releasing some radiations or particles like alpha, beta particles or gamma-radiations. The radioactive decay follows first order kinetics.
Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.
Half life is represented by
= rate constant
Given : Strontium-90 decreases in mass by one-half every 29 years , that is half life of Strontium-90 is 29 years.
As half life is independent of initial concentration, it will take 29 years for a 10.0-gram sample of strontium-90 to decay to 5.00 grams as the amount gets half.
